I still go regular and it has its busier days and quiet days. It’s began to get a lot of global media in the local planet guide so sadly not everyone is as respectful when it comes to rubbish etc but it should be enjoyed respectfully as it’s an amazing place.

Hi, dear, I hope you are well. I saw that your KZbin videos are very lovely and very helpful. You have enough of the videos but your video is not getting views because there is some problem with your videos. Your SEO score is very poor (23% out of 100) and you need optimization for better results. If you update the videos then the views of the video will increase. If you want you can discuss with me. Thanks

ICI Landore was the name of the works before the merger with Yorkshire Imperial Metals. ICYC was the nick-name of the place after this. "Where are you working?" "ICYC!"

All UK Copper Ore imports came into Swansea Bay. The odd one out was Red Jacket Works on the East bank of the river at Britton Ferry. All the other works were on the banks of the Tawe. Hence the name Copperopolis

Hi, we want to visit it. Just curious: 1. Do we need to bring cash? Or it's contactless everywhere? 2. How about the transport? Do we have Uber there? 3. Is it free to enter Atlas studio? 4. Any recommended dessert tour?
@JayCurtis2 ай бұрын
I would suggest cash in this area as it is quite remote and card machines don’t always work. It’s a very long way for Uber (several hours by car) I would suggest an organised trip. Atlas studio is also not free to enter.

Loved this place when I was younger as didn't live to far away. Remember the pelican on the lawn area and some of the swearing parrots who had come in as rescues from peoples homes. There wasn't a car in the area that didn't have the Penscynor car sticker. 3 chimps also escaped there in the early 90's and were heading towards the local school, unfortunately it didn't end well for 2 of them as the park had no option but to involve the police.
